I'm trying to use the file and settings transfer wizard
to transfer userd data between two pc's (duh) everything
works well until the last then the wizard craps out
saying it cannot copy the ntuser.dat file. I'm logged on
to both machines with the users login and the user has
admin right to each machine.

has anyone had this problem/ how did you solve it
